Báiki: The International Sámi Journal is a biannual English-language publication that coveres Sámi culture, history, and current affairs. The coverage also includes the community affairs of the Sámi in North America, estimated at some 30,000 people.[1] Báiki means "place" or "home" in Northern Sámi. It refers to the identity that is always in the heart. The magazine was so named because it was distributed among North American Sámi people, and was therefore meant to remind them of their Sámi heritage and identity.
